(Imagined by Ms. Darla to tune of “Do Your Ears Hang Low”)
I see one world with many stories
Gonna tell a tale or two
Won’t you listen to my song?
Won’t you try and sing along?
There are places I have never been
And things I’ve never seen
Won’t you come with me?
There are clothes of many colors
There are faces shining, too
Have you tried to meet a friend?
Seen a rainbow without end?
Come and go with me to places
That are new and far away
Won’t you come with me?
I hear strange and different languages
And sounds that aren’t the same
But I see a smiling face
And its joy can’t be erased
Happy hearts all beat to the same sweet drum
Whether here or over there
Won’t you come with me?
I am ready to hear a story that is new and yet the same
Is it from a far-off land?
Will I learn and understand?
I can’t wait to hear the tales they’ll tell
The places I will see
Won’t you come with me?
